Heat Transfer Enhancement During Water and Hydrocarbon Condensation on Lubricant Infused Surfaces.

abstract：:Identification of key regulators and regulatory pathways is an important step in the discovery of genes involved in cancer. Here, we propose a method to identify key regulators in prostate cancer (PCa) from a network constructed from gene expression datasets of PCa patients. Overexpressed genes were identified using B...
